Boundary condition

Boundary condition

I have one question, I modelled 2D RC column with Concrete Damaged Plasticity
(CDP) model. I applied lateral displacement say d=100mm at the top of the
column. And I want the column go naturally after applied the d=100mm. How I can
do that?

Re: Boundary condition

If you mean you want to delete the applied displacement, then use
*BOUNDARY,OP=NEW, then redefine your boundary conditions, leaving out
the one you want to eliminate (in CAE you can use the boundary condition
manager to deactivate boundary conditions).

Re: Boundary condition

hello
i think you must define an amplitude for continuing deformation after 100mm.
to do that you must define for example like this:
time amp
0 0
5 100
10 0
this say that 100mm displacement occur at 5 second and after that for
5 sec analysis will continue.
